[GeoNetwork-users] multiple keywords search

  Hi all,

I'm currently looking for a way to search for multiple keywords, using a logical and search.

So, it should be something like: "Thailand" AND "Fisheries"

The advanced search interface provides a nice way to execute a "Thailand" OR "Fisheries" search, but this is currently not what i want

Any hints much appreciated
Frank

Feel free to edit the input search text for keywords as follow : "Thailand"
and "Fisheries", this should work.

Actually, that's a pity that we do not provide any option to choose a
logical operator via the keyword search interface. That could be an
enhancement for future.

  Hi Mathieu,

thanks a lot for your prompt answer.

I tried to change the 'or' operator to an 'and', but this leads then only to an empty result set
